whenever a printer is powered on, crowsnest service needs to be restarted before webcam is working. I've got 3 printers and all 3 crowsnest are doing the same thing. they're all using C920 logitech USB webcam.
I've realised that V4.1 also has this line but I added 10 at the end to make it longer but still to no avail. --> CROWSNEST_ARGS="-c /home/pi/printer_data/config/crowsnest.conf -s 10" in ~/printer_data/systemd/crowsnest.env file.
MCU is M8P V1.1 and V1.2 with CM4 as host. Running latest version of klipper.

Set log_level: debug and delete_log: true, then reproduce the issue and send a log, before restarting the service

Increase the startup delay. Seems like it cannot bind the port

#

Increase -s to maybe like 15 or 20

#

ok thanks. I'll try this now.

#

if it all works oky, should I swap ther log level and delete_log back to default?

hard smelt Sep 30, 2024, 6:16 PM

#

Yes

#

I'm sorry, seems like the solution of adding 20 seconds is still helping printer to start webcam intermittently. So I just found that one of the printers still need service to be restarted manually after booting it up.

I would need again a log, if it's still ERROR [33.098 main] -- Can't bind HTTP on [127.0.0.1]:8080: Success you should further increase it, or try a different port, as some other application might block it for whatever reason at startup

#

The delay is only for the first boot, so it will not affect anything after the first boot.

ok, if I was to try diff port (8081), do i just need to change the port in the conf file? or is there anywhere else that I need to change as well?
